PRATT Shirley Pratt has been a member of the teacher faculty for two and one half years. During this period she has taught speech, Freshman English, Freshmen Core, Summer School, Yearbook, and also taught 7th grade English. Some who don't get to know Miss Pratt can be objective about her, but some of us who know her more than others or get along with her better could say she's smart, witty, and has an outstanding sense of humor. In her spare time she likes to be with her son, Anthony, which by the way is her cat. She also likes to read, along with sewing and swimming. The 1986-87 Yearbook staff would like to dedicate this year's yearbook to her. We very much appreciate all of the support and help she has provided. Thank-you DEDICATION

HOMECOMING Homecoming was great, and loads of fun, all had a good time from the starting gun. The bonfire burned as long as it could, the problem you see, there was no wood! The bonfire's message was crystal clear, for heavens sake, use the wood next year. Though disappointingly short, it did burn bright, and set the stage for a fun filled night. The cheerleaders gathered to lead the crowd, and jump and cheer and yell out loud. The student body did their best, but alas, the Wildcats were laid to rest. Try as they did, the team was shelved, they lost the game six to twelve. But let not your spirits be dimmed by those facts. This land is ruled by Winchester Wildcats! Pass the word to all who come, in our eyes they're number one. Student-faculty games were a hardy test, those who competed did their best. Wheel barrel races, and tug of war, balloon and egg toss made the score. When the games were over, and winners declared some raw egg was found in Luanne's hair. The weather held through the parade that day, and for the game that night. But in between the roof caved in and the rain was a terrible sight. The floats appeared to please the crowd, the judges eyes they passed. The record shows the blue ribbon choice was the junior class. Halftime arrived and on the field, the flags and drums appeared, and with them came the entire band, the crowd stood and cheered! They played and danced and thrilled the crowd while Steven led the band. And in the distance someone said, ''Play it again Sam The parade is gone, the sun is down, the game is history. The night was such a happy time, the sky lit by the moon. And when the final choice was made, our queen was Katy Coon. Looking back in retrospect, and given our best picks, all will say that we enjoyed Homecoming '86. Lynn Robinson
